Hi I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease back in July of 2008. I had muliple bi-opsies taken and blood tests done. I was also tested for h pylori at the time and it was negative but I have lost almost 60 lbs since then. I use to weigh 233 and now i am around 173. I have horrbile belching which is so painful at times I have to lay on my left side to expell the gas, nasty taste in my mouth, dizzy, extremely weak and fatigued.
I was at my GastroEnterologist today and asked him about H pylori and he says that if he tested 10 people that 8 of them would test positive for h pylori basically dismissing my concerns. It may be true that alot of us my have the bacteria but also there must be an indicator of a problem. I keep having cbc and they come back normal, what do you recommend I get tested for this is no way to live.
